Beyond Weight Loss: How Personalized Nutrition Helped Greg Take Control of His Health
For many people, nutrition coaching is synonymous with weight loss. But at CORE57, we know that food is about far more than a number on the scale. It’s about energy, longevity, disease prevention, and feeling empowered in your own body.
Greg came to CORE57 with a clear goal that had nothing to do with weight.
After years of rising cholesterol, triglycerides, and A1C levels, his physician once again prescribed a statin. This time, the conversation hit differently.
“I didn’t want to be on a daily medication for the rest of my life. I kept telling myself I could modify my diet and exercise more. But let’s be honest, that rarely happens consistently.”
Greg knew he needed a real plan, not another vague promise to “do better.” So in late July, he met with Rebecca, our in-house nutrition specialist, and shared his most recent blood panel along with his concerns.
What followed wasn’t a generic meal plan or a short-term reset. It was a roadmap.
A Data-Driven, No-Nonsense Approach
From the start, Greg appreciated Rebecca’s honesty and depth of knowledge. “If you want someone to sugarcoat the truth, keep moving - she’s not for you. Rebecca is passionate, incredibly knowledgeable, and genuinely invested in her clients.”
Together, they focused on sustainable, realistic changes:
• Meaningfully reducing refined carbohydrates and added sugars
• Increasing daily intake of vegetables and fruits
• Supporting metabolic health through consistent strength training (4x/week)
• Creating habits Greg could actually maintain long-term
The goal wasn’t restriction, it was alignment.
Real Results In Just Three Months
By staying committed to the plan, Greg saw measurable, clinically significant improvements in a remarkably short time:
Total cholesterol: 245 → 189
Triglycerides: 142 → 72
A1C: 6.1 → 5.5
“If you stay in the lane, this stuff really works.”
While weight loss was never the goal, Greg also saw his body composition shift - dropping from 162 lbs to 151 lbs - alongside improved energy and overall well-being. “I felt better. I looked better. I honestly feel like a new person.”
Nutrition Coaching Is About Choice
Greg was quick to point out that the process wasn’t easy. “It’s hard. It takes grit and determination. It really comes down to how bad you want it.”
For him, the motivation was clear: avoiding lifelong medication and taking control of his health. That’s the heart of CORE57’s nutrition philosophy.
Whether your goal is improving blood markers, supporting longevity, managing a chronic condition, or yes, losing weight, nutrition coaching is about giving you the tools, support, and accountability to make informed choices. After all, the most powerful transformation isn’t just physical, it’s knowing you’re no longer leaving your health up to chance.
